This is a good environment for an open match with lots of chances, and likely plenty of goals. In any case 6 of the last 8 H2Hs saw both teams scoring and 2 of Shrewsbury’s last 3 home games had the same outcomes.

Our next free betting tip is that the second half will see the majority of the goals. This has been the case in 3 of the last 5 H2Hs. Also, both teams score the majority of their goals after the interval – Shrewsbury 60.2%, and Bristol 58.1%.
Over 0.5 Bristol Goals
Our final Shrewsbury vs Bristol Rovers prediction backs the visitors to score at least 1 goal. Considering that Shrewsbury failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last 11 league matches this seems very likely to us. Also, Bristol were able to score in 7 of the last 8 H2Hs.
Shrewsbury vs Bristol Rovers Lineups and Team News
Shrewsbury
The Shrews lost 0-3 at home vs Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend in what was yet another dismal display. Once again the lack of motivation was evident and the combination of injury problems and low motivation led to an awful run of results in the last 8 rounds (D1 L7).
Latest news
Coach Cotterill is not one to rotate much but with only 2 games left of the season he’s expected to trust at least 2-3 of the Academy players in the coming match. He has some serious injury issues right now too. Last year’s regulars Nurse (left-back) and Udoh (striker) + midfielder Bayliss are all sidelined. Also, starting defenders Pennington and Flanagan are deemed doubtful.
Bristol Rovers
The Pirates showed stubbornness on Saturday when able to hold off Peterborough to a 0-0 away draw. The display was far from great but still good enough for what was only the second point in the last 5 games. Bristol are playing only for pride for a long time now and their low motivation led to that 5-game winless run.
Latest news
The expectations are that some fringe players and Academy members will be given a chance to shine in this match. The fourth-choice goalkeeper Ward might start between the posts. Key playmaker Evans misses the game suspended, with the midfield line badly crippled right now as Rossiter, Grant and captain Coutts are all out injured.
